INGREDIENTS

• Unsalted butter: 4 tablespoons, for melting with the marshmallows
• Mini marshmallows: 1 (10 oz) bag, melted to create the sticky base for the Rice Krispies
• Rice Krispies cereal: 5 cups, adds the familiar crunch to the pinwheels
• Graham cracker crumbs: 1½ cups, mixed with the Rice Krispies for the s’mores flavor
• Mini chocolate chips: 1½ cups, sprinkled over the marshmallow layer
• Marshmallow fluff: 1½ cups, spread over the Rice Krispies mixture for extra marshmallow goodness

INSTRUCTIONS

Step 1:

Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the mini marshmallows and stir until fully melted and smooth. Remove from heat.

Step 2:

Stir in the Rice Krispies cereal and graham cracker crumbs, mixing quickly to combine. The mixture will be sticky, so work quickly.

Step 3:

Press the Rice Krispies mixture onto a sheet of wax or parchment paper, spreading it into a rectangle using a spatula to create an even layer.

Step 4:

Spread the marshmallow fluff evenly over the surface of the Rice Krispies mixture, followed by sprinkling the mini chocolate chips on top.

Step 5:

Starting from a short edge, roll the mixture into a log, peeling back the paper as you roll. Press gently to compact the roll.

Step 6:

Wrap the log in wax paper and refrigerate for 30 minutes to set.

Step 7:

Once the log has set, slice it into 1-inch pinwheels and serve.

Serving and Storage Tips

• Store the pinwheels in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
• To make slicing easier, refrigerate the log for an extra 15 minutes before cutting.

Helpful Notes

• Lightly greasing your hands or the spatula will help prevent the sticky mixture from sticking as you roll it out.
• For an extra crunch, sprinkle crushed graham crackers over the marshmallow fluff before rolling.

Tips from Well-Known Chefs

• Chef Suggestion: For a more intense s’mores flavor, use dark chocolate chips instead of milk chocolate chips.

FAQs
